How We Took District Scholars to a Perfect 100 PageSpeed Score (And Why It Matters for Your Business)
Slow websites lose visitors. Confusing layouts lose customers. And inaccessible sites lose opportunities.
When District Scholars came to Blue Canary Web Design, their website was struggling with poor performance, low mobile usability, and accessibility issues.

Today, their site scores 100/100 on Google PageSpeed, loads instantly, and works beautifully on every device.
Here’s how we made it happen.
The Challenge: A Website Holding Them Back
Before the redesign, District Scholars faced several problems:
- Slow page load times
- Poor mobile experience
- Low accessibility scores
- Inconsistent layout across devices
- SEO limitations
These issues made it harder for visitors to engage, register, and trust the brand. In today’s digital landscape, that’s a serious disadvantage.
Our Solution: Performance-First Web Design
We approached this project with one goal:
Build a website that is fast, accessible, and built to convert.
Our redesign focused on:
- Speed Optimization
- Mobile-First Responsiveness
- Fully responsive layout
- Accessibility Improvements
- SEO Best Practices
Results: From Struggling Site to Perfect Scores
After launch, the results were immediate.
Google PageSpeed Performance
Desktop Score: 100/100 Mobile Score: 100/100

These improvements help District Scholars reach more students, retain more visitors, and build long-term credibility.
Why Website Performance Matters for Your Business
Google uses site speed and usability as ranking factors.
But more importantly, users do too!
Studies show 40% of users leave if a site takes more than 3 seconds to load. You've been there: no one wants to sit and wait for a website to load. It's a fact: faster sites convert better, which means more money in your pocket.
Accessible sites reach more customers. Not only is it profitable, it's the right thing to do. Don't we want everyone accessing our sites, regardless of their unique challenges? (And depending on your jurisdiction, failing to make your site accessible could open you up to legal issues!)
Your website is your first impression. Make sure it's a good one.
